posted on 25.10.2018, 11:12 authored by Alan ClementsIn a synchronous, serial, data-transmission system using orthogonal
groups of signal elements, the received signal elements of a group
are detected simultaneously in an iterative process, a separate detection
process being used for each received group of elements. At transmission
rates of up to 9600 bits-per-second over voice frequency channels, a
particularly cost-effective detection process operates by solving the
appropriate set of simultaneous equations. Many different iterative
techniques may be used to solve these equations, and the first
objective of the research project is to determine which of the available techniques achieves the best compromise between the
rate of convergence to the required solution and the equipment
complexity involved. [Continues.]
